To Nase sss Mind,

The Walker Lake BULLETIN thinks
the 4ndes- Union is exceedingly reluc.
tant about having our Hawthorne
neighbur classify Us with the Mug.
wumps, The BULLETIN Is perfectly
welcome to give us that distinction if
it wishes. While it is about it how.
ever, we would be glad to have it as.
sign Its own affiliations. That Is a
matter of the highest importance to
the State and Nation. Speak out
brother !-Inder. Untan,
Tho BULLETIN is pleased to learn
that its opinions excite such wide.
spread interest, but, while thanking
the Index. Union for the compli
ment still feels both surprised and
amused that mugwump should
have any curiosity regarding the party
utilization of anybody. However, any
Information on that head will always
be freely given 10 the most humble
inquirer. The BULLETIN Is American
aud as soon as party takes up The
American fight IN Nevada its atfllia
ticns will be there. In the meantime
it will stand by its Republican friends
and principles, until new party is
organized, always hoping ami believ.
ing that the Republicans Of this State
will adopt the main planks of the
Amercan organizations OF other
States. Always on its own side until
the fight is over, it will never have
belly.ache or sore.haad and will
never fight It's owo side because il
doesn't get oil it wants.
Having 10 curiosity about the cop
tents of q vacuum this paper does pot
know the POLITICAL complexion of its
neighbar, but 1t would seem tina,
while 1t is on the subject it would be
glad to he able to assign It's own
affiliations. That is u matter of the
highest importance to the Index
union-but you need not speak out,
brother. You can hear yourself wills

he got description of Tex, and was
soon on his trail, but had difficulty in
in getting assistance. With the aid
OF malcnes and candles he and com.

On Sunpay he closed rapidly on him
and secured the assistance of three
Indians and several whites. Sunday
night was spent tracking around Goat
Mountain, and on Monday they saw
Iex's horse In meadow. An Indian
scout was sent out in one direction,
while Henseley crept around the edge
OF the meadow. Suddenly he heard a
shot, and saw the Indian who told him
to look out, or he would get shot. He
saw Tex running for o tree, against
which his rifle leaned. Another shot

begged him not to shoot, aud said he
was ready to give up, He was ordered
to disarm himself, but before doing so
he had Henseley's promise to protect
him. He then threw his revolver
toward his gun. Hepsley arrested him
and examined his wounds. A ball had
passed through his left thigh, and one
through the right knee cap, and an.
other grazed the shin bone of the right
leg. In taking his prisoner to Fresno,

A Remarkable Growth.

The many friends of Messrs Mont.
gomery Ward g. Co., formerly at 227
and as9 Wabash Ave. Chicago. will be
glad to know that the rapid growth of
their business has forced them to re-.
move from Wabash Ave. to III, lac,
113 and ia Michigan Ave, where they
have purchased magnificent buildin Z
the seven floors of which they will
occupy exclusively. These seven
floors are each 10Ox165 feet, aggrega
ting nearly 10000 square feet (about
three acres) of floor surface. The new
quarters will enable them to handle
their large business to the better ad.
vantage of their thousands OF custo.
mers Fifteen years ago Messrs
Montgomery Ward q Co., occupied
but one room and that only e5x4O feet.
The enormous growth Ut their bust
ness during these fifteen years can only
be explained blythe fact that they sell
direct to consumers, supplying all
their wants and never misrepresent
any article. The success of TINS house
proves the old saying, that Honesty
is the best policy" and from this
policy they never deviate, The Fall
catalogue issued by Messrs Mont.
gomery Ward u Co., ought to be in
every family.

Honey Lake has skipped; the place
that know it well will now know 1t
no more forever, except from the in.
tolerabls alkali stencil that rises from
the place where once its waters lay a.
calm add serene as d maiden of 10 or
thereabouts. The drying up of the
lake, leaves Uncovered a stretch of
country IL by IS miles. but whether
1t will ever become valuable for farm.
ing purposes is doubtful. At present
the lake bed is covered with alkali
from the sixteenth part of an inch to
four inches in thickness, and thick
growth OF salt grass is sr-inging ur
away ont from what was once the
shore. There are those who sre of the
opinion that Honey Lake will never
again fiji np. So much water from
Susan river is used for ir igation that
very little ever reaches the lake, and
the water from Long Valley creek is
all taken out. Bereft of these supplies
Honey Lake will hardly be able to
ever show up again, at least, this is
the idea eptertalned by settelers along
iis shores. SO says the Lassen Mat.

Used to Point a Moral.

lcrOn Cn0 Boston transcript
 I got off Jamaica Plain car at Cedar street, in Roxbury, the other day on my way to pay visit. The street goes up a hill rather abruptly from the corner, and it is not just here very pleasant part I was about half way up the hill and opposite some sort of a brewery place when was ac- costed respectfully by a pleasant faced Hi- bernian, who had been talking to some men who were rolling out beer barrels from the doorway of the place across the street. I knew that the man who spoke to me had been calling across, but I was busy with my own thoughts and had not noticed his words. His speaking to me was evidently a sudden inspiration.
 ''LadyP he said in a loud, clear tone; t'Ladyl''
 I stopped and looked at him. I should have supposed would be startled at being spoken to so imperatively and suddenly, but the mans voice and manner were quite above any personality. I had simply appeared at an opportune moment to point a moral for him. He was featuring low looking man over the way, one of the workmen employed in rolling out the beer barrels.
 f'Look at that baldheaded seoundrel over there, lady; look at himl He bates his mother rigilar. Do ye see that, yee booming rascal, ye7 The lady can't hear to look second time at the likes of ye. To disgrace the neighborhood by batting yer own moth- er!"
 I went on up tho hill, and as I passed the indignant man he stepped politely off the sidewalk to make room for me, saying "Och, ma'am, it would shame him we'll if ye'd looked longer"
 1 bowed, but as it seemed to me that had done service enough Vicariously as mis- sionary, excused myself from casting con- demning glances upon the sinner under ar- raignment.
 When I returned to my horse car, after walk through pleasanter streets, the man who had employed the novel method of try ing to shame his sinful friend had disap- peared. But the barrel roller was still busy about the door of the beer place. glanced toward him with some wonder as to his pos sible behavior. He had not seemed to hear his aecuser before nor to see me; but at sight of me now he ducked his head behind barrel and remained in extraordinary doubled over position of shamed semiscon- cealment as I walked down the street. When I was fairly down to the corner curi- osity impelIed me to turn and look again in his direction. He was just strengthening up again to go on with his work. I have won dered since if he feared that I might add postscript to his friends scathing. I should like to, I am sure, if knew what one could possibly say to touch the conscience of man "who bates his mother rigilar."

 For some time past specially prepared slag
 has been used in Germany for the metalling of roads, principally in the neighborhood of Hanover. Some of the furnaces in the Han over district make speciality of metalling material called slag stone. In preparing this material the liquid slag is run from the fur- nace into cast iron mouIds slightly tapering towards the top. The moulds have no bot tom, but stand on an iron trolley, and after the slag has been in the mould some little time the sides and bottom abstract sufficient heat from the mass to solidify it on the out side. The mould is then lifted off vertically ceive new charge while the block of molten slag, enclosed in it's own skin of solidifed slag, is run over pit, where, after perforat- ing the skin, the liquid slag is allowed to run out and is covered with cinders and ashes and left to cool very gradually. Under this treatment the slag assumes a dense and crys- talline constitution very suitable for paving purposes.
 Harper's Weekly is not yet the friend of Higgins. It says: The President can hardly fail to appreciate the gravity of the political situation in Maryland. It is reflected in the public and private comments of his friends. and the mere statement of it is 8 cause for the most serious consideration. In contest between the most notorious leaders of cor rupt politics with .resoiute body of citizens of both parties who are seeking honest gov ernment and actual reform the President is in apparent alliance with the enemies of re- form. It is State election, but it is by far the most important of the State elections of the year, and it commands the attention of the whole country. In no State are politics more notoriously corrupt than in Maryland; nowhere is the issue between honest and dis honest politics more clearly defined. No politician in the country is moro eonspicu- ous as all enemy of the Presidents often declared views than Senator German. No platform pronounces more strongly for spoiis politics than the Democratic platform in Maryland. The only policy at stake in the election is that of reform in the laws and the system which facilitate political corrup- tion

At a recent seance in Rochester by medi- ura from Brooklyn several written communi- cations, purporting to come from the spirit world, were handed out from the cabinet. Six of the notes iu which the chirography seemed to be the most dissimilar were snb- mitted to experts in the matter of handwrit- ing Both of the experts agreed that not more than two persons wrote the notes, and one of them was inclined to think that all were written by the same hand. A pencil drawing, purporting to be a portrait of Jean Ingelow, represented her as man.
 The fire proof curtain in the Philadelphia Academy of Music is attracting a good deal of attention. It measures 50 by 60 feet and is made of per cent. of cotton to 97 per cent of asbestos, woven like ordinary cloth. It is not rolled, but hauled up in two sections in an invisible framework. The curtain pro- jects three feet beyond the sides of the stage opening to prevent fire from working around it. The curtain Is an absolute protection against the progress of flames toward the au- ditorium and also keeps back the smoke. The insurance companies are 80 well satisfied
